low test in the mid of the cycle !?

Hi guys
so again am running test e only cycle and am at week 9 to 12. My cycle looks like:
500 mg test E a week
HCG 500 I/U a week
adex 0.5 mg EOD

so at week 9 I put on 22 pounds, bf is a little bit higher but not excessive ( still have upper abs). I am definitively much bigger and I was really happy about how things were going on. I have got during this cycle some side effects like oily skin, gyno signs, my nipples have been swollen and very sensible and I was bloating 2 weeks ago and I had to increase adex and take nolva ( am still on nolva actually).

A week ago I had my bloods work done am waiting for my results but I have been told already that my test level is 20.9 nmol/L thing like 602.3 ng/dl . (Less then it was before I started actually).

Now the first thing I thought was that my gear is fake but fore some reason I think is not. Because am not really expert in these stuff can u please guys tell me what do u think about that? am so disappointed
(Ps: i have been on nolva for two weeks or so)
if you got any question just ask and btw i have had good reviews about the gear.
Is quite important to me to understand what is going on and what should I do at this point..
Thanks

Didn't read the entire post, but probably not testosterone that you're injecting.

Agree with the broad. Hell, most TRT'ers on 100 mgs per week are over your current level.

ok ok so let s think that gear is bunk (I had good reviews from different users about it anyway).
how can I come out from this cycle? What about the PCT?

500mg a week and lower than before? Theres no way it can be real

Or it could have been so underdosed that you are onley getting 30_50mg if i wer you i would throw it in the garbage and get some real test asap or start PCT

I would just start now because you were never really on cycle

Yes.

It sounds like you're on something, but it is another hormone mixed with a bit of testosterone.

if my test e is fake do I definitively need a pct? I mean am not been injecting testosterone, it is at baseline now.

Even if your test e is under does it still suppress your natural production, still need a PCT bro. Also should stay on HCG before u start PCT.
Just do a proper PCT take good amount of time off and start again with some real test:)
